Add a new configuration option that lets users specify a default
partial clone filter per URL pattern. When cloning a repository
whose URL matches a configured pattern, git-clone automatically
applies the filter, equivalent to passing --filter on the command
line.
[clone "https://github.com/"]
defaultObjectFilter = blob:limit=5m
[clone "https://internal.corp.com/large-project/"]
defaultObjectFilter = blob:none
URL matching uses the existing urlmatch_config_entry() infrastructure,
following the same rules as http.<url>.* — you can match a domain,
a namespace path, or a specific project, and the most specific match
wins.
The config only affects the initial clone. Once the clone completes,
the filter is recorded in remote.<name>.partialCloneFilter, so
subsequent fetches inherit it automatically. An explicit --filter
flag on the command line takes precedence.
Only the URL-qualified form (clone.<url>.defaultObjectFilter) is
honored; a bare clone.defaultObjectFilter without a URL subsection
is ignored.
